The norm-breaking violence : A study of partner violence in same-sexrelationships (English)
Abstract [sv]

Denna kvalitativa översiktsstudie har som syfte att övergripande undersöka våld i nära relation när det kommer till samkönade par. Genom en narrativ syntes identifierades ett antal teman som analyserades med hjälp av ett Queerteoretiskt ramverk och med genusperspektivet i åtanke. Under analysen framgick att det fanns likheter med det våld som förekommer i heterosexuella relationernär det kommer till utsatthet, förlopp och våldets natur. Orsakerna till våld och möjligheten till att söka stöd och hjälp kompliceras dock till följd av heteronormativa ideal, där extern homofobi och fördomar internaliseras och leder till spänningar och våld i relationen. Vidare upplevde deltagarna att den allmänna uppfattningen om vem som är offer och förövare inte passar in på verkliga narrativet och att organisationer som arbetar med våldsfrågor saknar kunskap om hbtq- personers specifika behov. HBTQ-personer är en bred och svår målgrupp att fånga in när det kommer till våld i nära relation vilket genomsyrar forskningen i stort såväl som den här studien. 

Abstract [en]

The purpose of this qualitative overview study is to examine overall violence in close relationships when it comes to same-sex couples. Through a narrative synthesis, a number of themes were identified that were analyzed using a Queer theoretical framework and with the gender perspective in mind. The analysis showed that there were similarities with the violence that occurs in heterosexual relationships when it comes to vulnerability, course and the nature of violence. However, the causes of violence and the ability to seek support and help are complicated by heteronormative ideals, where external homophobia and prejudice are internalized and lead to tensions and violence in the relationship. Furthermore, the participants experienced that the general perception of who are the victims and perpetrators does not fit into the real narrative and that organizations that work with issues of violence lack knowledge about the specific needs of LGBTQ people.
